Mazak’s unique UN Series of ultra narrow vertical and horizontal machining centers for mass production applications encompasses machines that are up to three times more productive per unit of floor space than normal-sized machines. Several machines can be stacked together for mass production applications. High speed machine spindles accelerate to top speeds in just 0.55 seconds, and perform synchronized tapping at 8,000 rpm.
SERIES CHARACTERISTICS:
20,000 rpm spindles
20-tool storage capacities, 30-tool optional on Horizontal model
Narrow footprint – several can be stacked in a row
Large maintenance panel with easy access
Multiple machines may be tended by one robot
MX Hybrid Roller Guides
Provides unmatched rigidity, speed, and accuracy
More surface contact for large load capacities and better dampening
Better distribution load points via an X-Design that allows load to be applied in four directions
Higher positioning accuracy than boxways due to no stick and slip
Faster and greener than boxways with nearly twice the rapid traverse rate and less contamination in the coolant system
Automatic Tool Changers
Provides part-production versatility
Machinery that feature cam-driven automatic tool changers that significantly reduce non-cut times by quickly exchanging tools and getting spindles back in the cut in the shortest times possible. Reliable tool monitoring on these machines maximizes production efficiency and lowers operating costs via early problem detection. A standard tool storage capacity 20 tools ensures continuous machining operation, while an optional 30-tool magazine is available to further reduce set-up times and increase machining flexibility.
Efficient Chip Management
Increases machine uptime
Chip conveyor system provides fast, low-maintenance chip management, while flood coolant evacuates chips quickly and efficiently from the machine’s work envelope. Choose between a high 48-inch or low 18-inch discharge chip conveyor. The complete chip system, which fits within the footprint of the machine, helps prevent production slowdowns caused by chip buildup.
